Spacious and extremely well equipped property. We particularly enjoyed the pool and large kitchen/dining area. We had everything we needed for a fun family long weekend
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Zara’s beautiful home. The house is stunning, incredibly spacious and beautifully presented, and it felt very special from the moment we arrived. It was the perfect setting for our family celebration and somewhere we could all really relax and enjoy being together.The house is extremely comfortable and very well equipped, with so much space for everyone. We particularly enjoyed all the different areas of the house and the fantastic facilities. Everything has been thoughtfully put together and it really does feel like a much-loved family home rather than simply a rental property.Zara was a wonderful host: warm, helpful and very responsive, and everything was straightforward from arrival through to departure.We made some very special memories here and were genuinely sorry to leave. We would absolutely recommend the house and would love to return in the future.

I am so pleased that you enjoyed your stay and please do come back again soon.
There is not the correct word for describing this property, as amazing doesn’t seem to do it justice. The house is absolutely beautiful both inside and out, with ample space for our group (three separate families) to spread out or come together. The outside space is wonderful- the heated pool is a great size for large groups and being heated, it doesn’t matter if there is a cooler breeze. There is outside seating both in the sun and in the shade around the pool, so everyone can relax where they want. We also enjoyed playing a game of rounders on the garden!The kitchen area was where we spent a lot of our time when not in the pool, with all of us chatting in the swinging chairs with the doors open or round the table. We also enjoyed playing pool, skittles and ping pong. The surrounding area is lovely and quiet. We had a lovely lunch nearby, and Aldi is within 5 minutes drive if you need anything else for your stay. We have stayed in various properties as a large group each year for the last five years, and Zara’s property has been the best by far. We are already hoping to come back next year if it is available! Zara was also really helpful and responsible for any questions we had. You won’t be disappointed with this property. If anything, you will underestimate what you are about to walk into and in an absolutely good way.
